Former EastEnders actress Wendy Richard (born Wendy Emerton) has died aged 65, her agent has
confirmed.
The star, who played Pauline Fowler in the BBC One soap opera, had been suffering from cancer.
Her agent Kevin Francis said: "She was incredibly brave and retained her sense of humour right to
the end."
Last October, Richard revealed she had an aggressive, terminal form of cancer. Soon after that she
married her long-term partner John Burns.
In 2000 Richard was awarded the MBE for services to television and in 2007 she was given a British
Soap Award for Lifetime Achievement for her role in EastEnders.
Richard also appeared in two Carry On films, playing a cameo role in Carry On Matron and a
supporting part in Carry On Girls (which also featured future EastEnders co-star, Barbara Windsor).
In 1962, her distinct cockney vocals also helped get her to #1 on the UK singles chart on the single
"Come Outside" by Mike Sarne.
In 2007, Richard was awarded a British Soap Award for 'Lifetime Achievement' for her role in
Eastenders.
As well as her 21 years on Albert Square, Richard starred in sitcoms Are You Being Served?, Dad's
Army and Grace and Favour.
She joined EastEnders when the programme began in 1985 and remained in it until 2006, when her
character died.

I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
AND KNOW GOD MUST HAVE HEARD,
I FELT THE ANSWER IN MY HEART
ALTHOUGH HE SPOKE NO WORD.
I DIDN'T ASK FOR WEALTH OR FAME,
I KNEW YOU WOULDN'T MIND,
I ASKED HIM TO SEND TREASURES
OF A FAR MORE LASTING KIND.
I ASKED THAT HE WOULD BE NEAR YOU
AT THE START OF EACH NEW DAY,
TO GRANT YOU HEALTH AND BLESSINGS
AND FRIENDS TO SHARE YOUR WAY.
I ASKED FOR HAPPINESS FOR YOU
IN ALL THINGS GREAT AND SMALL,
BUT IT WAS FOR HIS LOVING CARE,
I PRAYED FOR MOST OF ALL.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
LOVE THERESA XX

Sweet Dreams...
The sky is filled with Angels
With puffy lacy wings
The remnants of God's beauty
With treasures they now bring
Each one of them a Guardian
That travels in the sky
To watch throughout eternity
Their parents from on high
Smiles that come from Angels
They fall like crystal rain
Eases earthly burdens
Lifting all life's pain
Halos so astounding
That glitter gold each day
Following their loved ones
In such a perfect way
Wings in gentle breezes
That fall from up above
Kissing every parent
With everlasting love
Angels soar through heaven
With everlasting light
Looking down from heaven
Saying their "goodnights"
Kissing all who loved them
So gently on the face
This life's tender mercy
Each parent can embrace
Wings and shiny halos
Travel from on high
Surrounding all their loved ones
They never say good-bye
SOMEONE WHO CARES
As The Sun Came Up This Morning
I Watched You There Below
Your Hearts Seemed Oh So Heavy
But There’s Something You Should Know
I’m Not Gone So Don’t Worry
I’m Just A Step Ahead
And I’m With You Every Single Day
As You Rise Up From Your Bed
I Am The Sun That Warms You
I Am The Moon’s Soft Glow
I Am The Stars That Twinkle
And Light Your Path Below
So When At Times You Miss Me
Just Look For Me I’m There
For You Cannot Hide My Spirit
It Is With You Everywhere.

Sent with love ♥
Why when your so special
Why when your so young
Everybody loved you,
And your life had just begun,
♥⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
Why do we have trouble sleeping,
Have tears on our pillow case
Its because we long to see you
With that smile upon your face,
♥⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
Why did you have to leave us,
Why did we have to part,
The worse day of our life that day,
And it really broke our heart.
♥⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
